If you are using the Forms feature regularly, you must know about these 5 "killer" capabilities that can take your team to the next level.

The capabilities are:

As the Forms are made up of different question fields, you can customize how you wish to retrieve this information from your users, using question settings options. This will ensure the data you receive is accurate and complete and projects the info you wish it to be.

Conditional forms let you untie forms, by creating a form that shows the user only the relevant information and fields, based on their answers. This way, you can create fewer forms, ease the use of the forms for your employees, and get only the most accurate information that you need.

Setting a question as required will prevent your users from making entries without filling in this answer. The required mark can be put on ANY and EVERY question.

Captures the location of where the user has answered a specific question and presents it later in the entry table and export.

In the example below we can see a field within the form that is set as a required field and in addition, requires the location stamp capture of the employee filling out the form.

For any upload question (image or file) or any dropdown or image selection you can control whether only 1 answer can be input or multiple, this is great for uploading multiple pictures of a job site or incident.

Choose whether to allow your users to input a manual address or simply capture where they are now.

Ensure you only receive updated and live photos by setting the image upload to only come from the camera and not the gallery.

You can now hold all your relevant communication around your entries.

Say you look at an entry your employee made, but something is not clear about his answers, you can simply open up a communication channel around that specific entry using the comments section. So everyone involved will know what this is about.

You can add text, files, and attachments through the Comments.

If you don’t want any communication around entries, you can always disable this option.

Sharing options is a great way to automate the information flow in your organization.

It allows you to CC relevant stakeholders with a PDF copy or a push notification of relevant entries.

You can even set up specific triggers to get notified in real time on the things that are most interesting to you and your team!

For example, you can set up your sharing options so that all form entries are always shared with a specific manager, or you can have your employees select from a list of different managers, depending on what department they belong to.

Capturing information from your users is just the first step in the forms. With Manager Fields, you can manage the full workflow process by providing feedback to your employees after each submission, tagging additional managers, and even adding your own signature to an entry.

For example, if someone made a stock order, you update the delivery status (approved, delivered, declined), CC the relevant personnel, mark the expected delivery date, and even send notes back to the user! That way the complete workflow process is managed from end to end and everyone is kept in the loop.
